@Coder100 Thanks for the video, thats a great tutorial. I am aware of how it works. I just want my npm, yarn, react and all the stuff I use to develop the frontend in the same repl that I use to develop the backend, so that I can work on both at the same time.
This means I have to have node.js installed in the same repl as python3.
@Coder100 Okay, this was a bit confusing. Did some digging and found out that:
If I create a node repl and add a python file (.py) to it, then it would install node and add python2.7 automatically. For my project I need python3 though.
If I create a python repl and add a javascript file (.js) to it, then it would install python3.8 and add node automatically.
So this seems to solve the problem for now. I just have to FIRST create a python repl and then add node, not the other way round. I really think there should be a way to manage installs and versions besides relying on automatic detection and import though.
how to do a react flask app with python3 and nodejs in one repl?
I'm wondering if I could use repl.it to develop a webapp that contains both, a python3 backend with flask and a nodejs frontent with react.
Basically I try to replicate this tutorial: https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/how-to-create-a-react--flask-project
Is there a way to configure a repl to run python3 AND nodejs?
React is for js frontend. It works well with node.js because of things like webpack and babel, but you can still have a flask backend.

And I can find no way to do this.
@Travelbug it already is, try doing
